Roy (SSB4): Difference between revisions

After the second tier list, Roy was finally able to see some advancements in his metagames thanks to dedicated players, allowing his representation to improve ever-so slightly. Ryo's secondary Roy, which allowed him to place 9th at {{Trn|Super Smash Con 2016}}, was one of the first noteworthy performances for Roy, and additional secondary usage and noteworthy regional performances allowed him to rise to 44th on the third tier list. 2017, however, was by far the best year for Roy yet, as it featured several high major placements from {{Sm|Hyper Kirby}}, {{Sm|Cloudy}}'s run to 9th at {{Trn|Smash Factor 6}} defeating {{Sm|Kameme}}, and {{Sm|komorikiri}} successfully using solo-Roy at several {{Trn|Sumabato}} events and defeating {{Sm|CaptainZack}} at {{Trn|2GG Championship}}. Despite this success, Roy only rose slightly to 41st on the fourth and final tier list, though due to the expansion of the tiers, he is now ranked as a mid-tier character. While a number of top players consider his placement to be accurate due to his polarized toolkit causing him to struggle against numerous characters, many other players agreed that Roy could potentially rise just a bit higher thanks to his good power and mobility, as well as impressive results at smaller yet notable events such as Cloudy's run to 2nd at {{Trn|Smash Fest 3}} and {{Sm|TheFlow}}'s run to 7th at {{Trn|Albion 2}}.
